The Manor is a substantial, character-filled country house set within very large private grounds with sweeping views to Ripley Castle and surrounding lakes. Rooms are generous and arranged over multiple storeys, with formal reception rooms, a large breakfast kitchen, and three double bedrooms, two with en suites and fitted wardrobes.
Outdoor amenities are a major strength: mature woodland and paddock, an original walled kitchen garden with productive fruit trees and greenhouses, a heated kidney-shaped pool with pool house, summer house/office with hardwired broadband, and a triple garage plus workshop and tractor shed. The plot delivers privacy, formal garden areas and useful outbuildings for storage or hobby use.
The house has been well loved but now requires internal modernisation. Practical points to note: the property currently has an EPC rating of E, LPG-fired boiler and radiators (private fuel, not a community supply), and it will need updating to modern energy and safety standards. There is a medium flood risk for the area and council tax is very expensive, which will affect running costs.
This is a rare opportunity for a family or buyer seeking an imposing country home with scope to personalise and upgrade. The setting, scale and ancillary buildings give potential for extended family living, home working and hobby farming, while being only a short drive from Harrogate town centre.
